One is that activity disordersdieting, exercising, healthy eatingstart as virtuous practices, but become addictive obsessions. The other affliction is a developmental disorder, which also starts with the virtuousthose eager for challenge and change. But these overachievers who seek self-improvement get a distorted life instead. Knowing anorexia from inside, the recovered offer two watchwords on helping those who suffer.
